I specialize in marriage counseling in Boulder, CO. I begin by providing either a half or full day marriage intensive for couples to make substantial progress right from the start when they need it most. My office is ideally located on the Pearl St. Mall next to Ben and Jerry's.

While my therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing from multiple theories, the foundation for all of my work is based on systems theory. I believe our past and current relationships influence our behavior and interactions with others. We all play a role in our relationships with partners, family members, friends, coworkers, classmates. Our roles and those of others change over time and often old ways of functioning no longer work in new relationships. I will help you discover more effective ways of interacting with others to get your needs met and feel more supported by the important people in your life. I work with children and families, couples and adults.

Are you troubled by your past? If a traumatic experience has left you feeling wounded, anxious or depressed, I may be the counselor for you. In my therapy practice in Fort Collins, Colorado, and also by telephone, I've provided counseling to people suffering with the debilitating effects of trauma and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) for over 11 years. Regardless how long you've been suffering, the symptoms of trauma are treatable. Recent advances in the field of psychotherapy can help you resolve even the most severe symptoms so that you can live your life more fully.

Because symptoms of trauma are rooted deeply in your brain and body, my approach helps you to release negative emotions at a physiological level.
